I Was Heeled!

I have a confession to make, I have really dry heels. There, I exposed my secret shame. My heels are so dry that I do not wears shoes in public that would leave them exposed in any way, without socks of course. In the summer, this really sucks. I have tried a variety of products to help with this and none of them have performed the miracle that this product has in just one night.

This is Sally Hansen NightTime Heel Repair Wrap. At first glance, yes, this does seem pretty awkward. It actually felt awkward on my feet at first as well. This is a set of wraps that are made of felt and have a little velcro tab to securely keep the wrap on the heel. It comes with a a set of pads you place inside the wrap. The pads seemed to have something applied to them but I wasn’t sure what it was and I didn’t question it. This seems to be the key reason this product works so well. The pads function as a thick barrier and this allows the heel to absorb the moisture really well. The directions said to apply the co-ordinating ointment but I did pick that up. I actually applied some chamomile petroleum jelly on my heel instead and strapped on the wraps.

When I took the wraps off the next day, I was completely stunned by how soft and moisturized my heels were. It would ordinarily take me a few nights of sleeping with socks on and applying petroleum jelly to get these kinds of results.This was comfortable too. I do not like sleeping with socks on but I put up with it. With this, my toes got the air they needed. Also, this is completely washable. The wraps and the padded inserts can both be washed and used over and over again. At $5.99, it’s pretty reasonable too. Sally, you did good with this one.
